If a figure is a trapezoid, in what other way or ways can you classify it?

2 answers:

8 0

Trapezoid is classified as a polygon since it has a 4 sided flat shape with a pair of opposite parallel sides that is called bases and other two sides are called the legs. It is also considered as a quadrilateral since as mentioned it has 4 sides.

You can classify it by saying it's a Polygon

The area of the smallest equilateral triangle with one vertex on each of the sides of the right triangle with side lengths and <

Gre4nikov [31]

Set up the given triangle on x-y coordinates with right angle at (0,0). So the two vertices are at (5,0) and (0,2 $sqrt{x} n]{3}$ )

let (a,0) and (0,b) be two vertices of the equilateral triangle. So the third vertex must be at $(\frac{a+\sqrt{3}b}{2} , \frac{b+\sqrt{3}a}{2} )$

for a pt (x,y) on line sx+ty=1, the minimum of $\sqrt{x^{2} + {y^{2} }$
equals to $\frac{1}{ \sqrt{ s^{2} + t^{2} } }$

smallest value happens at $\frac{10 \sqrt{3} }{67}$

so area is $\frac{75\sqrt{3}}{67}$

hence m=75, n=67, p=3
m+n+p = 75+67+3 = 145

The operation manager at a tire manufacturing company believes that the mean mileage of a tire is 30,393 miles, with a standard

Pie

Answer:

52.84% probability that the sample mean would differ from the population mean by less than 339 miles in a sample of 37 tires if the manager is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we have to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem:

Normal probability distribution:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central limit theorem:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 30393, \sigma = 2876, n = 37, s = \frac{2876}{\sqrt{37}} = 472.81$

What is the probability that the sample mean would differ from the population mean by less than 339 miles in a sample of 37 tires if the manager is correct

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 30393 + 339 = 30732 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 30393 - 339 = 30054. So

X = 30732

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{30732 - 30393}{472.81}$

$Z = 0.72$

$Z = 0.72$ has a pvalue of 0.7642.

X = 30054

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{30054 - 30393}{472.81}$

$Z = -0.72$

$Z = -0.72$ has a pvalue of 0.2358

0.7642 - 0.2358 = 0.5284

52.84% probability that the sample mean would differ from the population mean by less than 339 miles in a sample of 37 tires if the manager is correct

A grocer has 2 kinds of tea, one that sells for $8.00 per pound and the other that sells for $6.00 per pound. How many pounds of

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

35 pounds of $8.00 tea and 15 pounds of $6.00 tea

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the pounds of tea of the $8 kind. 8x would represent the total cost of that type of tea. We can also say 50 - x is the pounds of tea of the $6 kind, so 6(50 - x) is the total cost of that type of tea. 50 * 7.4 represents the total cost of all the tea, and the expression 8x + 6(50 -x) would also represent the same thing. We can write this as an equation,

8x + 6(50 -x) = 50 * 7.4

simplify,

8x + 300 - 6x = 370

2x + 300 = 370

and solve.

2x = 70

x = 35

This means there is 35 pounds of the $8 kind.

We can subtract that from 50 to find,

50 - 35 = 15,

15 pounds is the amount of the $6 kind.

What is the line of symmetry for the parabola whose equation is y = 3x2 + 24x - 1?

meriva

Hello :
y = 3x2 + 24x - 1
= 3(x²+8x) -1
= 3 (x² +2(4)(x) +4²- 4² ) -1
= 3((x+4)² -16)-1
y = 3(x+4)² - 49
the line of symmetry is : x= - 4
